DOT Desk: Two migrant labourers were killed when militants hurled a grenade at their home in Indian Kashmir’s Shopian district, local police said yesterday.
Kashmir is claimed in full but ruled in part by nuclear arch-rivals India and Pakistan, who have fought two of their three wars over control of the Himalayan territory, Reports The Daily Star.
New Delhi has been fighting an Islamist separatist insurgency in the disputed Himalayan region since the late 1980s.
The attack on the migrant workers comes after a Hindu farmer was shot and killed by militants last week in the same district.
